Horses In the Time of Homer. The horses used in Homer's time were war horses, Tho warriors were drawn in chariots. The art of riding was known, but it is alluded to as something unusual, 'Ulysses at the time of his shipwreck "bestrode a plank, like a horseman on a big steed," There are reasons for believing that the pr actice of riding was later than that of driving, and the myth of the centaur, where, according to Shake- speare, "man Is lneorpsed and dentins- tured with the beast," probably orig- inated at an early period when the ap- pearance of a man on horseback was a novel sight. A Long Wait. At a Denver hotel a woman went into one of the telephone booths and sat down. It is not possible to get to telephone number from the booth—the girl at the board has to call it.

Royal Purple will permanently cure the Bots, Colic, Worms, Skin Diseases and Debility, and rester° run - down Animals to plumpness and vigor. MR. ANDREW WEGRiCH, of Waintiett, Ont., says : "This is to certify that 1 have tried your Royal Purple Stock Speckle for two weeks, on one cow. On the 10th I weighed her milk as 17 pounds. I noticed a change after 5 or 6 days, as there was an extra weight of milk. On the 29th, I carefully weighed the milk, and she gave 22 pounds. I am giving an order for 6 boxes, as I consider it the best I have ever used." "Stock Food" will not do this. Because "Stock Food" is noth;ng more or less than a mixture of the very things which you, yourself, grow on your own farm. It is not more food your Anitnals need. They must have something to help their bodies get all the nourishment front the food they are getting. So that they will fatten, and stay fat, all the year 'round. They need something to pr'ovent disease, to curd disease, and to keep them in the best of health, all the time. Not a Stock Food Royal Purple is not a "Stock Todd," nor a "medicine." It is iL Conditioner, It does not contain Crain, nor lata products. Nor does it Contain "hope,". or any other injurious ingredient. Royal Purple does not merely temporarily bloat or inspire the Animal. It fattens and strengthens It, permanently.

Why They Have Cholera. ht, Siam, as in many parts of the east where a waterworks system has not been installed, the population is absolutely dependent upon canal, riv- er and rain water for drinking and bathing purposes. Ili Bangkok, a city of so many klongs, or canals, that it has been called the Venice of the east, the native population drink the river and canal water, not having the means for storing rainwater, and thus usual- ly without filtering or boiling, with the result that all the year round there is a large mortality from cholera which, immediately before the corn mencement of the rainy season in. April and May, when the river and. canal waters become brackish, runs up into thousands daily. Those who can afford it use filters, and some even boil the water after it has been filter- ed. Several artesian wells have been sunk, but this water, as well as die. tilled and soda water, is sold and is therefore beyond the reach of the na- tives. A Trick With an Egg. Place two V shaped wineglasses of the same size near the edge of a table, In the right hand one put an egg, just fitting the rim of the glass. Hold the bases of the glasses firmly down, the top rims touching each other. Now, with a quick, sharp breath blow upon' the line where the egg and the glass meet. The egg will jump to the other glass. With a lit. tle practice this can be done every time. Be careful to blow in a line with the left hand glass, or .the egg will jump in the wrong direction and land on the table with disastrous results, A Traveler's Tate.
